I know how wrong people were about me, and I don’t ever want to be that wrong about another person.
This line reminds me that, although her story may be getting exploited, such as in the Tom McCarthy film, it does not mean we need to vilify him or anyone a part of it; at the end of the day these are real people working their real jobs. It can be hard to "pick a side" in a situation like this.
because others continue to profit off my identity, and my trauma, without my consent.
This part struck me right away -- as someone who has seen/heard multiple Amanda Knox documentaries, podcasts, and television episodes, as well as other true crime related content, I always find myself questioning whether the content is even ethical; where do we draw the line between "spreading awareness" and just straight exploitation?
